Frozen Pizza

Buying frozen pizza tomorrow (yeah, I know) because I'm feeling lazy. What is the best kind with a thin crust. I will add some toppings, so not too particular about that unless you know one that has the best of everything.Thanks

It's more common to have thin cracker-crust in Chicago than deep dish. And thin crust brands including Home Run Inn and Reggio's certainly outnumber deep dish brands in your supermarket's frozen foods aisle.

As teh other poster noted Home Run Inn is thin (and they even have an "ultra-thin") and it's a really great frozen product. They had a pretty fantastic plum tomato and cheese that has unfortunately been discontinued.

To expand a bit on JungMann's post, Chicago has as much diversity in pizza as it does in ethnic cuisines. Everything from wood-fired Neapolitan to cracker-crust, stuffed and deep dish (and even "New York and "New Haven" style)..

If you're looking for a frozen pizza at the grocery store and easy to find, then Freschetta brick oven is our favorite. Not as keen on the the one listed as thin crust in the brand and the brick oven variety is still almost as thin.

ipsedixit, that's what I ended up with. I usually buy it, but was looking for something different. It is good, not great. I found it needs lots of sauce tossed around on top before cooking, otherwise quite dry. But it's the best I can find here in central CA.The otheres mentioned, I believe, are not available in CA.
